About the piece

Painted in 1895 by Willem Bastiaan Tholen, this oil on canvas captures a quiet, magical moment in a sun-drenched forest. Two children stand amidst the trees, their figures softly illuminated by dappled light, while a tame crow perches on the boy's hand, adding an element of gentle wonder to the pastoral setting.
